Lauren Alaina was the first to perform on American Idol tonight and she gave us “Any Man of Mine” (original performer: Shania Twain.) Telling us she wants to be a country music diva, her dream seems believable as she delivered a strong personality with a strong voice. She made me actually want to go listen to Shania Twain, which is not an urge I often have.

What the judges said about Lauren Alaina:

Randy Jackson -She sang it well, but she doesn’t know how talented she is. She needs to shine more.

Jennifer Lopez– Red lips McGee said she’s so good she doesn’t have to try, but needs to kick it into high gear.

Steven Tyler – He loved the song, but wanted it to be done a bit more kickass.

Needs to lose 50 lbs. No Trish Underwood, go home fattie

Vina

she’s freakin 16. lets see you get up there and do what she does. needs to lose 50 lbs? you’re a fckn bitch. and obviously you have issues with your own weight to talk about a 16 year old, who actually has a good shape. Maybe this world needs someone who isn’t a stick to look up to. If she’s comfortable in her skin, let her be. AND she sings amazing. So grow up Lwynne.

larry

Vina, I could not agree with you more. She sang and looked amazing.

luc

I cant believe anyone would say she needs to lose 50 pounds. Honestly? What do you want her to look anorexic? She has a HEALTHY figure and is no where near fat. She is perfect the way she is. Obviously you have issues maybe with your looks or maybe you just wish you could sing like her. Shes beautiful and she is an amazing singer.

cass

i love her !!!!!! who cares what one person says about her .. this is a singing competion if anyone forgot

I think she is great. I look forward to hearing her every week. I love her spunk and enthusiasm.

Ilene

Does Jordan Sparks come to anyone’s mind? That girl is gorgeous and curvy and comfortable in her skin..Just like Lauren. I love this girl and hope she learns how great she is and that she doesn’t always need the accolades from the “chosen 3” to know she’s done great!!!! She’s a doll and I love Scotty too. Hope they go far in the competition. And don’t lose a pound, LA.

Ice

Andrew Gordon

she is really the best choice.

Cortney

Lwynne, your mouth is the one who needs to lose 50 pounds. Thats why your at home and she is in the TOP 12.

Veronica Garrett

She is very talented and delivered a great performance. However doing enough is not enough if she wants to win. I think she shoud search for a perfect song for her talent and really give it her best shot. She has the talent to win.

Annie
